Amazonia Juice Bar - Midtown

I decided to stop here on a whim and get some breakfast and do some recreational reading. It was a decent choice. Food on the cheap side (relative to midtown prices) and it was quiet. I got a standard bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich on a toasted bun and it was certainly fresher than any pre-made frozen breakfast sandwich you get at any chain restaurant.

Since this is a juice bar I was obligated to try a smoothie and got mango, orange, banana type that boasted large doses of vitamin C. It was good, but a bit frothy and mild. I tried another that was raspberries, strawberries, and blueberries--similar outcome, but still good.

When I finished the bill came to around $15. I walked down 9th Ave. all the way down to the zeros, stopping at a park in Greenwich Village and at a few shops. It was a very relaxing day. Bright and sunny.

EDIT*--Did anyone notice this post was Bukowski-esque? I reread it today and it was very apparent.
